GRAMERCY RESIDENCES - INSPIRATION

INSPIRATION

Inspired by the spirit of the great city of New York, The Gramercy Residences will be the first tower to rise at Century City.

This ultra-exclusive hyper-amenitized condo project takes its name from Manhattan’s ultra-exclusive Gramercy Park, a private, fenced-in private park in New York City’s most prestigious of neighborhoods, accessible only to the well heeled residents of the buildings in the area who are assigned keys, which is one of the last remaining private parks in the United States. It is here that Cyrus Field conceived the Trans-Atlantic Cable, Mark Twain played pool, and an eight-year old John F. Kennedy chased the squirrels on a lazy afternoon. It is the exclusivity, the history, and the central characteristics of Gramercy Park in New York, that has inspired in no small measure, the first urban icon set to rise in progressive Century City.

Gramercy, a unique private enclave, is a sanctuary in the middle of the city’s relentless pace. It echoes the New York of a quieter, gentler time. Here, at the turn of a key, is peace and quiet, a place to muse and reflect, read a newspaper or merely catch some sun.

This new residential masterpiece will feature interiors and aesthetics that evoke the Big Apple’s unmistakable flair, and the exclusivity and style of its Manhattanite namesake.

GRAMERCY RESIDENCES - THE TRILOGY

THE TRILOGY

The Trilogy is a cluster of three residential masterpieces set to rise within Century City. Each building will have its own distinct architectural story, tracing its inspiration from three of the world’s greatest cities, Paris, London, and New York.

The Trilogy will introduce a sensational new genre to urban living with a hyper-amenitized condominium concept that luxuriously converges the best of the world’s most desired addresses in one place.

With Century City’s citizens, a new paradigm in residential high-rise development will be set, with all units not only providing Century’s highly acclaimed, Fully-fitted, fully-furnished concept, but taking bespoke living to the next level with more interior design options to allow you to truly personalize your future home.

As the first residences to be built within a future urban icon and international landmark, Century City’s Trilogy cluster boasts of delightful amenities never before seen in the industry.

Among them is the piece de resistance: The Oasis, a breathtaking sky park (see drawing above) with waterfalls, infinity pools, a designer restaurant, health club and more, 30 stories above the ground and traversing each of the three buildings

WHY INVEST IN THE PHILIPPINES

The Philippines is on the verge of a phenomenal future

The Philippine currency has reached a 5-year high in 2007 and continues to be strong and resilient, fortified by the economic management of the current administration.

Among the 25 priority infrastructure projects expected for completion by 2010 are the LRT line 1 to NAIA, the P21 billion Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway, the P6.9 billion Subic Port development the P1.3 billion North Expressway-South Luzon Expressway connection via C-5 Project, and the Edsa Rehabilitation Project. Six of the major projects are set to be completed by March 2007.

The Philippine Stock exchange hit a nine year record in 2006 and opened 2007 some 30 percent higher and continues to be strong.

The overall business climate is upbeat and industry leaders and CEOs perceive that 2007 and 2008 will be even better.

The Philippines has emerged a strong second to India in the global outsourcing market. In 2006, it recorded $3.6 billion in earnings, a 50%-percent jump from 2005 and by 2010 it is expected to earn as much as $12.2billion.

Big outsourcing players in the U.S. such as Sykes Enterprises, Convergys, PeopleSupport Inc, Accenture, and eTelecare Global solutions have already set up headquarters in the Philippines, and Dell computers recently opened a contact center and is on schedule to open a second one this year. The Philippines is becoming a much preferred option as it has stronger cultural ties to the United States than India, and it is expected to catch up and even overtake India as market leader.

Remittances from Filipino Expatriates have grown to over $1.2billion dollars a month!

We are on the verge of the biggest real estate boom in history, set to totally eclipse the 1997 Asian crisis, and fueled by money from Overseas Filipinos, foreign investment, and a strong and bullish economy.

A surging demand for real estate is expected to sustain a continued surging growth of the Property industry.

The current economic managers of the country have remained steadfast in pursuing a blueprint for an economically prosperous future.
